Praxis Gallery | Photo Arts Center Smarter Entry Competition/Calls For Entry Login

Photography is often seen as a record of what is real. But the frame can also become a portal—an invitation into the imagined, the unconscious, the symbolic. Like dreams, photographs can conceal, distort, or illuminate hidden truths.

Praxis Gallery seeks photographic works that explore dream states and interior worlds through surreal compositions, symbolic gestures, lyrical narratives, or abstraction—evoking the subconscious through poetic, uncanny, and mythic imagery. All lens-based artwork is welcome.

Multiplicity changes how we see. When subjects are gathered, compared, or arranged, ordinary forms become evidence of pattern, difference, accumulation, and order. A collection becomes a portrait; a typology reveals variation; recurring gestures, forms, or structures create visual systems that can clarify, unsettle, or transform the familiar.

Praxis Gallery seeks photographic art that explores multiplicity through seriality, collections, classification, typologies, diptychs, grids, and other unified arrangements. We welcome images found or constructed, documentary or conceptual, in black and white or color, traditional or experimental. Juror: Ross Anderson
